An artisan Pacific Northwest style round pizza built with a 45/45/10 flour blend (low-gluten pastry, strong 00, and bolted Type 85 Trailblazer). Formulated with 65% hydration, 5% extra virgin olive oil, 3.5% kosher salt, and a 48-hour cold fermentation. Hand-stretched onto a semolina peel and baked at high heat for a thin, crisp undercarriage with deep toasted grain complexity.

Temperature575°F
Bake Time5-6 min
SurfacePreheated Baking Steel on Upper Deck

Bake directly on preheated baking steel at 550°F–600°F (or high-heat deck oven) for 5 to 6 minutes. Broiler on HIGH for the final 60 seconds produces crisp micro-blistering.


Phase 1: Dough & Gluten Development

Flour blending, yeast inoculation, hydration rest & kneading

2m
  • Combine 45% pastry flour, 45% Tipo 00, and 10% Type 85 flour with 65% warm water (85°F–90°F) and 0.15% IDY.
  • Mix on Speed 1 for 2 minutes until incorporated.
  • Cover and rest for 15 minutes.
2m
  • Add 3.5% kosher salt, mix 2 minutes on Speed 1, and rest 5 minutes.
  • Stream in 5.0% olive oil, mix 2 minutes on Speed 2, rest 5 minutes, then mix 2 minutes on Speed 2 until smooth (target DDT: 80°F).

Phase 2: Fermentation & Temperature

Ambient bulk rise, portioning, cold proof & room temper

45m
  • Transfer to an oiled container.
  • Bulk ferment for 45 minutes, performing stretch-and-folds at 0, 15, and 30 minutes.
48h
  • Divide into balls.
  • Round tightly to seal bottom seams.
  • Proof at room temperature for 2 hours, then transfer to refrigerator for a minimum 48-hour cold proof.
2h
  • Pull dough from fridge 2 hours before baking.
  • Dredge in semolina rimacinata and stretch over knuckles to a thin round disc.

Phase 4: Oven Launch & Finishing

High-heat baking surface, broiler assist, de-pan & wire rack rest

6m
  • Slide directly onto preheated baking steel at 550°F (maximum home oven temperature) or 600°F in an outdoor pizza oven.
  • Bake for 5 to 6 minutes until cheese is bubbling and undercarriage is rigid and crisp.
